wednesday the valkyrja2 Nephi 1:115 (RAV) “Adam fell, that men might be; and men are, that they might have joy."
Excuse you. EVE made that choice. Adam is a follower.
"Eve (and Adam ig...) fell that humankind might be; and humankind is, that they might have joy."
what are your thoughts? i trust you here because singleness is typically the preferred action over here and those are the options in my dilemma. pursuing friendship with potential of pre/marital commitment or pursuing friendship only and remaining single
i am #sideA #queerChristian #SSAchristian #LatterDaySaint i think #sideB would have better input on this
i don't want to be told "this is stupid." i have many many reasons, much (not all) of them not #internalizedHomophobia
also. they really should pick up on the #LatterDaySaint thing. why are you showing me the type of protestants that wouldn't like me based on that alone.
i do have a history of watching saints unscripted (i know, i know. but when they talk about us (#RLDS / #CommunityofChrist) i tell the truth in the comments. bc they don't do diligent research. or talk to us apparently.")
but that would be #LDS (L-dS) content still. it also sends me academic christian material, which does peak my interest.
talk i'm writing: "me and my roommate at the residential psychiatric facility were just like Ammon and Lamoni (but this time they're both anorexic)"
unhinged
a recently baptized brother just told me i was "probably the coolest saint [he has] ever met."
that right made my day. i hope my influence is a good one.
I wrote some poetry while at church camp. There was a session done by a brother who is a writer, and he focused on Villanelles and Sonnets. This is a quasi-Villanelle with artistic liberities taken.

You are welcome to join Sacred Pause tonight 11/24/2024 at 6 pm PST/ 7 pm RMT/ 8pm CST/ 9pm EST
if you are looking for a space to fellowship tonight and/or need to talk with other queer #christian about "going home for the holidays. there is no pressure to take the sacrament/communion if uncomfortable.
this sister in the zoom group i was in has a lithograph accurate portrait of joseph smith jr. like girl...
i have to try really hard not to look at him in meetings but his face takes up more space than hers. and is unblinking.
i barely notice the temple on the other side.
bonus surprise: WC is putting the other missing/removed sections back in. no more scriptural memory hole!
it means a lot to me for the church to recognize that as a mistake. my current D&C only has the number and is like, "section was moved to the appendix in X year and the appendix was removed in Y year" so you know something was there but have to really research to know what it was

today is also the 40th anniversary of women in the priesthood in #CommunityOfChrist
